Happy Mothers Day

I hope you all had a fabulous Mothers Day. Our church had a lunch for the mothers, cooked and served by all the men and boys. It was nice. For junior church the kids made carnation bouquets. I'm feeling quite rich in flowers .

It's been a busy weekend getting ready to go out of town tomorrow. We are leaving bright and early for the Northern California coast. I am soooo looking forward to a week away with NO chores. The secret desires of a homesteader .

On Friday we went on an awesome field trip to the LavaBeds National Monument. They were having a "TimeLine thru History". They had representatives of Mountain Men, Klamath Indians, Pioneers, and Civil War Soldiers. We had a really fun time  and took LOTS of pics to share.

This was the Mountain Man Camp. The last pic is my hubby making fire .

Here comes the kids throwing a spear.

The Little Man was otherwise occupied

This was the pioneer camp (they were a little lost. They were looking for the Applegate Trail)

The coolest was the Soldier camp.They even had a hospital tent complete with a pile of amputated limbs

The Little Man enjoyed the ride

We were all dirty. I was sunburned(forgot my hat ). And tired. But we had fun. Talk to you soon from the Redwoods.

Blessings.
